Mongol Empire

Mongol Empire - Another great video clip from the Drive Thru History series and my friends at http://www.ColdWaterMedia.com

The Mongol Empire was founded by Genghis Khan, a Mongol political and military leader who sometimes brutally conquered and united the Mongol tribes. Between AD 1206, when Temujin received his title as Genghis Khan ("Ruler"), and AD 1370, when the last emperor in China's Yuan Dynasty died in exile, the Mongol "Khagan" ("Great Khans" or "Emperors") established the largest contiguous empire in world history.

At its height, the Mongol Empire covered large parts of modern-day China, Mongolia, Russia, Azerbaijan, Armenia, Georgia, Iraq, Iran, Turkey, Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan, Uzbekistan, Pakistan, Tajikistan, Afghanistan, Turkmenistan, Moldova, South Korea, North Korea, and Kuwait. After the death of Genghis Khan in 1227, the Mongol Empire grew even larger under his son, Tushi, and grandson, Kublai Khan, who established the Yuan Dynasty in China through at least 22 legitimate sons. This family legacy made the Khan's the most successful empire builders ever.

Mongol Empire -- The Silk Road
Once established, the Mongol Empire became a peaceful political environment that allowed increased communication and trade between the West, Middle East, and Asia. This openness meant that these previously separate worlds could begin to trade with each other.
